Soulfly Reveal Album Artwork For New Album

Soulfly have released the cover art for their new album “Savages” which is set for release on Ocotober 01. Also below is a statement by band front man/guitarist Max Cavalera on the effort.

“Recording “Savages” was an amazing experience for me. I was so excited to work with Terry Date, whom I consider to be one of the best producers of all time. He has done some great records and we have been in contact for awhile since he mixed three Soulfly albums in the past. He came to see Soulfly whenever we played in Seattle, and we finally made it work that he would be the producer for “Savages“.

My teammates were awesome. Marc did some crazy guitar noises and we did a ‘Mars Part Two’ at the end of ‘El Comegente‘ – it’s very Led Zeppelin influenced and Marc kicked some ass on it. I wrote ‘El Comegente‘ with Tony Campos. It’s in Portuguese and Spanish and it’s about Vargas – a Venezuelan cannibal from the 80′s. He is the Hannibal Lecter of the Andes. Crazy shit!

I worked for the first time on a full album with my son, Zyon. Before recording the album I first worked closely at home with him in preproduction, and it was great to spend weeks on the songs with Zyon, shaping the sound of the record. Zyon did a great job and he hits really hard just like his uncle Iggor – it was amazing recording with my son. A whole record! A dream come true for a father whose life is dedicated to metal. “Savages” is a celebration of all that.”
